Saints forward Puletua accepts a one-match ban
Hull KR second rower Con Mika has been charged with a reckless high tackle during his side's 32-18 derby defeat by Hull on Monday night.
Mika was put on report by referee Richard Silverwood for the challenge which laid out Hull centre Jordan Turner and was on Tuesday charged by the Rugby Football League's match-review panel with a grade B offence.
The former Newcastle Knights forward is not eligible for an early-guilty plea and will, therefore, face an RFL disciplinary hearing on Wednesday with the possibility of picking up a ban of one or two matches.
Ironically, Mika failed to finish the match after tearing a hamstring and is already facing a spell on the sidelines.
St Helens forward Tony Puletua also accepted a one-match ban for his dismissal in last Friday's 20-15 win over Catalan Dragons in Perpignan.
Puletua, who was sent off for a shoulder charge on Catalan forward Gregory Mounis, will miss Sunday's home game against Huddersfield.
